Many people don't realize that Medicare doesn't cover long-term in-home care. Pennsylvania's Medicaid Home Care Program helps eligible residents get daily, safe, in-home support fully covered by Medicaid.

Who Can Be a Caregiver in Pennsylvania's Medicaid Home Care Program?

Under Pennsylvania's Medicaid Home Care Program, your loved one can choose a family member or friend to provide daily care – and that person can get paid weekly through Medicaid.

Adult Child
Many parents choose their son or daughter
Relatives
Grandchild, sibling, aunt, uncle, cousin, etc.
Friend or Neighbor
A trusted person who helps regularly
Not Eligible: Legal spouses or legal guardians (per PA Medicaid rules)

CarePoint Home Care handles all background checks, onboarding, and payroll so you can focus on providing care – not paperwork.

What If You Don't Have a Family Member or Friend to Provide Care?

No problem. If you don't have someone available, CarePoint Home Care can match you with a professional, certified caregiver through Pennsylvania's Medicaid Home Care Program.

You'll still receive the same safe, compassionate, in-home support – fully covered by Medicaid.
